Although there were no big-name headliners this year, marking the 8th anniversary of the festival, the stage was filled with the same excitement as in previous years, with performers including the impressive Lou Reed, The Chemical Brothers, who appeared for the fourth time this year, The White Stripes, and the King of Fuji Rock, Kiyoshiro Imawano.
We also saw a variety of comebacks, such as The Roosters, whose final live performance was at FRF'04, with Oe Shinya returning to the band after 16 years; PIXIES, who reunited for the first time in 10 years and came to Japan for the first time; and Tokyo Incidents, where Shiina Ringo, who had been on hiatus, reunited and resumed her activities by re-forming her band.
Turning our attention to newcomers, FRANZ FERDINAND, who suddenly appeared on the GREEN STAGE, as well as KEANE, THE KILLERS, !!! and others who have already made it big this year, all put on hot live shows.
Also, ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION and Sambomaster, who performed on the Rookie Stage at FRF'03, have enjoyed explosive success as you know, and are making a triumphant return to RED MARQUEE this year! Of course, we can't forget the fantastic performances by connoisseur ARTISTS such as BEN HARPER, JACK JOHNSON, and moe.
Aside from the Lineup, a film screening, a long-awaited event since the very first FUJI ROCK in 1997, has finally come to fruition! The BOARD WALK has continued to grow, and the variety of objects and art to be seen throughout the venue has increased year by year. The circus at the Palace of Wonder, which includes the Rookie Stage, has already become a staple, and laser shows have even popped up. The proliferation of festival items has become a symbol of FUJI ROCK's ever-evolving nature.
